Two-year-old Nevaeh Rain was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy just months after she was born-- she's unable to walk on her own without assistance. Her mother, Erin, told FOX 4 she's been given an opportunity of a lifetime: world-renowned doctor, T.S. Parks "will preform a Selective Dorsal Rhyziotomy."

Doctor Parks tells Erin, her daughter, Nevaeh is the perfect candidate for the procedure abd within a year, she'll br able to walk on her own. 

Erin tells FOX 4, her insurance does not cover the out-of-state surgery which is why a fundraising event will be held tomorrow from 2-7pm at The Parrot Bar and Grill.

Nevaeh's family says they'll be using the money to help cover the surgery, airfare, and hospital stay.

If you'd like to help in any way, contact Erin at (239) 777-6949 or email erynsea2017@yahoo.com
